SPECIAL THANKS.
This special page presents the 8mm films digital data which was recorded by the retired radio officer Mr. Nakamura.
We highly appreciate to his family to provide us the valuable and historical data.
There are things that never change.
Even 50 years ago from now, there were same scenes, things and feelings on our ship.
SEAMANSHIP
On 1972, seafarers were waving the company’s flag to the another ship in our fleet to say “Have a safe voyage”
(Kounan Maru、Harima Maru)
GREAT OCEAN AND BLUE SKIES
On March and April 1971, a ship is sailing on the middle of the Pacific ocean and Philippine’s sea, we can see the great ocean, the blue sky. And the waves which were made by ship. Even now, our funnel mark is unchanging.
(Harima Maru)
ROUGH SEA
On January 1973, the ship encountered the rough seas. Even the time passed about 50 years, the heavy weather and rough seas are still hard for seafarers in the present age.
(Shin Kyoku Maru)
DAY OFF AT THE GREAT OCEAN
On May 1972, a weekend at the middle of ocean, seafarers were taking a break for a while. Playing a deck billiards with colleagues, time flies when we are having a good time.
(Harima Maru)
LOVED ONES
On the summer 1973, to see a love one at the port. The picturesque scene is never to be forgettable when you see the loved ones soon after the great journey.
